Were you refreshed and able to jump out of bed…

…or did it take a while to force yourself up and out of bed, after being rudely shaken out of your slumber by that stupid alarm clock buzz, buzz, buzzing in your ear?

Did your body feel “young” and energetic as you got up, or...

>>Were you achy and groggy from another restless night’s sleep?

When you looked yourself in the mirror, did you see a fresh, young face, or…

…Did you stagger into the bathroom, ankles and knees creaking , hunched over from back pain and tightness, and see an old version of yourself staring back through the mirror ? With bags under your eyes, dry & graying hair, wrinkled & dry skin?

When you looked down as you got dressed did you see a fit, lean, and healthy body, or…

… Did you see an ever-growing stomach, soft, “flabby” fat, and a body that’s become weak, tired and soft?

>>What goes through your mind as you look at yourself?

Are you happy with the way you look and feel, or…

… Are you frustrated by your life , with your lack of health, and with your inability to lose weight and keep it off ?

Do you mumble to yourself, “What the hell? How did I get to look and feel like this? ”

Are you at ease and peaceful, or stressed as you get ready for your day?

Do you have to drink multiple cups of coffee before you can even think about being productive and nice?

Do you drink more throughout the day, or even worse, use energy drinks and soda, because you have wild energy swings where you go from feeling good and energetic… to crashing and feeling like you need a nap?

Do you get winded easy? Lose your breath after you’ve gone up a flight of stairs, or as you rush out the door to your car?

How many times in the last couple years have you started a “diet” or workout program? Once, twice, 10 times?

How do your failures make you feel?

If you and I were sitting face-to-face, and I asked you point blank, after all you just read, “How do you feel?” What would you say?

Look, weight gain, and weight loss, are serious concerns of yours, and I get it…

>>but these other issues are also very serious:

Joint pain, muscle weakness, digestive issues, “old” skin and hair, stubborn belly fat, zero energy, and an addiction to carbohydrates…

There is growing evidence showing the connection between a “leaky” gut and issues such as weight gain, thyroid problems, Type-2 Diabetes, a lack of energy, digestion problems (constipation, bloating, gas, diarrhea, indigestion, etc.).

Basically, your gut works like this…

Your entire digestive system, from your mouth to your hind end, is one long tube that’s actually outside your body… even though it’s inside.

This long tube has very strong barriers that keep toxic substances OUT of your body, and when these barriers are damaged, as in the case of leaky gut, then food particles and toxins that are not supposed to make it into your blood stream and lymph system, are there, which then makes organs like your liver have to work double time to get rid of this toxicity.

This heavy workload then makes your liver get sluggish and bogged down (imagine yourself having to do the job of 10 people in half the time and how that would make you feel
